Filed Under water treadmill animal canine dog rehab rehabilitation drills exercise sports injury repair program healing pain CCL surgery ACL knee hip replacement veterinary surgeon therapy I became aware of the water treadmill via my work at the hospital, and I found that the use of it was/is widely promoted within veterinary medicine and the canine rehab model, which draws heavily from structured, academic-oriented, human physical therapy concepts. When pets struggle with “Acupuncture, herbs, physical therapy and diet changes can help.” Ask about new treatment options. Treatment options focus on increasing flexibility and strength while decreasing pain. That is why, at Animal Medical of New City, we are now providing our patients with veterinary supervised physical medicine treatments such as therapeutic exercises, acupuncture, cold laser and ultrasound therapy and Dr. At Georgia Veterinary Rehab, her state-of-the-art facility, four-legged patients get laser therapy and massages or undergo low-impact rehab sessions on an underwater treadmill. Lisa Schenkel, a long time veterinarian at Animal Medical of New City, has been a certified canine rehabilitation therapist since 2006 and has also recently completed certification in veterinary medical acupuncture at Colorado State University. Alternative therapies have also been gaining tremendous popularity in recent years. €�Canine Rehabilitation is very similar to physical therapy and reading about the successes with dogs, I became fully energized to be a part of this exciting new field. With the increasing number of animal rehabilitation practitioners, or what humans call “physical therapists,” three legged dogs can now take advantage of the same life-changing therapies that humans do. A Cutting-edge Physical Therapy Program for Dogs.
